Qiao Shuzhen shot him a glare. "You really have a wide sense of control."
Yao Nian looked back and forth in shock, "Are you two here together?"
Yao Zhandong snorted, "What a coincidence to run into you at the school gate. It's like a ghost."
"You think I wanted to come in with you?" Qiao Shuzhen retorted defiantly. "If it weren't for Nian Nian, I wouldn't even want to look at you."
"You think I wanted—"
"Alright, alright," Yao Nian quickly interrupted them as they began to bicker. "Let’s go in first; we might not find seats later."
The graduation ceremony officially began. After the representatives delivered their speeches, they started handing out diplomas.
On stage, Yao Nian held her diploma while posing for a photo with the principal. By the door, Qiao Shuzhen was frantically waving her phone at her.
She smiled at the camera.
As the group photo session came to an end, Shen Du had yet to appear.
Just as Yao Nian was about to stand up, Lin Mo pulled her back. "Hey, didn’t the department head say there would be a lecture on job opportunities for graduates? Let’s listen to it before we leave."
She wasn’t in the mood for any lectures; they were just repetitive talks that weren’t worth listening to.
Fang Yihan, who usually had no interest in lectures, surprisingly urged her, "It’s still early; just sit down and listen."
As soon as she finished speaking, the lights in the auditorium suddenly dimmed. A man in a black suit stepped into the light from behind the curtain.
Yao Nian froze.
This man should be from a certain court in Shanghai, and now he was appearing on stage as a guest speaker to share employment insights with the graduates.
Shen Du held the microphone and spoke slowly: "Careers can be planned; they are not a rigid path. Just like asteroids orbiting around the sun in the solar system, everyone has their own trajectory—both rotating and revolving. When distance and cycles align properly, there is water, there is oxygen, there is life. As long as you keep moving forward, you will discover your opportunities and stage."
Under the soft beams of light, he seemed to be enveloped in a hazy glow, like a bright moon in the world, infused with warmth and a gentle breeze.
"Regardless of whether your future work is related to law or not, I hope everyone can respect their profession and uphold the rule of law."
Amidst thunderous applause, the man’s gaze suddenly fixed on a certain direction, his lips curling into a faint smile: "Next, I would like to ask everyone for a little personal time for my daughter who is also graduating today."
The atmosphere in the venue instantly ignited with this statement, erupting into loud cheers that reverberated against Yao Nian's eardrums and nerves, yet couldn’t mask her heart pounding like a drum.
The man walked step by step down the stage, crossing half of the auditorium toward the girl.
Countless gazes turned towards her, and Yao Nian was completely stunned. She pressed her lips together and whispered, "What are you doing?"
Shen Du smiled warmly, his eyes locked onto hers from just a breath away. "You once said not to make assumptions about the future. But I must confess, ever since the day I fell in love with you, I have already written you into my future."
His gaze was intense and sincere. "You are still young, and the future holds endless possibilities. Forgive me for wanting to keep you by my side early on. I am eager to have a rightful identity. Please believe me, despite our ten-year age difference, I will spend the rest of my life making it up to you."
Yao Nian bit her lip tightly, struggling to hold back her tears.
She watched as Shen Du took out a dark green velvet box from the lining of his suit jacket and slowly opened it. The ring inside resembled a crescent moon, and the diamond set atop it refracted light like starlight surrounding the moon.
Shen Du knelt on one knee, his gentle voice resonating throughout the hall: "Article 1049 of the Civil Code stipulates how to get married, but how to love you, I will interpret through a lifetime."
"So, young lady, will you be my wife? Will you stay by my side forever?"
Lin Mo raised her camera and aimed it at them, capturing the moment with a click.
In that frozen frame, the girl turned back in astonishment while the man's gaze was solely fixed on her.
At nineteen, we scored full marks in each other's hearts; at our graduation ceremony four years ago, you became my ideal.
At thirteen, you had already surpassed everyone else. In the days to come, all I want is to hold your hand.
She extended her hand, her voice choked yet resolute: "I do."
The stars were love letters written by the galaxy, and he was a gift from this world to her. She had never thought life was worth living until she met him.
You were destined to be my moon.
The end.
